The Sazerac is New Orleans in a glass—America's oldest known cocktail, born in the city's French Quarter in the mid-1800s. The rye's spice meets a whisper of absinthe that coats the glass, creating an herbal backdrop for the distinctive floral and anise notes of Peychaud's bitters. A lemon twist releases its oils across the surface, brightening what is otherwise a rich, spirit-forward drink with a subtle sweetness and a long, warming finish.
